Akhshtyr Cave
Akhshtyr Cave is an archaeological cave above the Mzymta Valley. Its setting gives visitors a closer look at the gorge landscape and a place associated with the area's deep human past.
Come for the combination of archaeology and terrain: the cave sits above the Mzymta rather than along Adler's flat shoreline. Seeing the entrance and its valley setting makes the area's prehistoric story easier to place in the landscape. Plan it as a foothill excursion and check the managed access conditions before travelling, since the approach is distinct from a casual seafront walk.
